For every parabolic subgroup $P$ of a Lie supergroup $G$, the homogeneous superspace $G/P$ carries a $G$-invariant supergeometry. We address the question whether $\mathfrak{g}=\text{Lie}(G)$ is the maximal supersymmetry of this…
We prove for the automorphism group of an arbitrary parabolic geometry that the $C^0$ and $C^{\infty}$ topologies coincide, and the group admits the structure of a Lie group in this topology. We further show that this automorphism group is…
We give criteria for finite dimensionality or infinite dimensionality of the polynomial centralizer of the Lie algebra of a linear Lie group, in terms of invariants and relative invariants of the group. In the finite dimensional scenario…
Generalized parallelizable spaces allow a unified treatment of consistent maximally supersymmetric truncations of ten- and eleven-dimensional supergravity in generalized geometry. Known examples are spheres, twisted tori and hyperboloides.…
We study the topology of compact manifolds with a Lie group action for which there are only finitely many non-principal orbits, and describe the possible orbit spaces which can occur. If some non-principal orbit is singular, we show that…
This paper provides a geometric description for Lie--Hamilton systems on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with locally transitive Vessiot--Guldberg Lie algebras through two types of geometric models. The first one is the restriction of a class of…
The mathematical properties of a nonlinear parabolic equation arising in the modelling of non-newtonian flows are investigated. The peculiarity of this equation is that it may degenerate into a hyperbolic equation (in fact a linear…
A new structure, based on joining copies of a group by means of a \emph{twist}, has recently been considered to describe the brackets of the two exceptional real Lie algebras of type $G_2$ in a highly symmetric way. In this work we show…
Let M be a surface (possibly nonorientable) with punctures and/or boundary components. The paper is a study of ``geometric subgroups'' of the mapping class group of M, that is subgroups corresponding to inclusions of subsurfaces (possibly…
We investigate the finite-dimensional Lie groups whose points are separated by the continuous homomorphisms into groups of invertible elements of locally convex algebras with continuous inversion that satisfy an appropriate completeness…
In this paper we generalize a result in [1], showing that an arbitrary Riemannian symmetric space can be realized as a closed submanifold of a covering group of the Lie group defining the symmetric space. Some properties of the subgroups of…
We investigate the SL(2,R) invariant geodesic curves with the as- sociated invariant distance function in parabolic geometry. Parabolic geom- etry naturally occurs in the study of SL(2,R) and is placed in between the elliptic and the…
A previous article was devoted to an analysis of the symmetry properties of a class of first-order delay ordinary differential systems (DODSs). Here we concentrate on linear DODSs. They have infinite-dimensional Lie point symmetry groups…
We address the study of some curvature equations for distinguished submanifolds in para-K\"ahler geometry. We first observe that a para-complex submanifold of a para-K\"ahler manifold is minimal. Next we describe the extrinsic geometry of…
We prove a real interpolation characterization for some non Euclidean H\"older spaces, built on the Lie structure induced by a class of ultra-parabolic Kolmogorov-type operators satisfying the H\"ormander condition. As a by-product we also…
The article provides a local classification of singularities of meromorphic second order linear differential equation with respect to analytic/meromorphic linear point transformations. It also addresses the problem of determining the Lie…
The present paper links the representation theory of Lie groupoids and infinite-dimensional Lie groups. We show that smooth representations of Lie groupoids give rise to smooth representations of associated Lie groups. The groups envisaged…
This work concerns the definition and analysis of a new class of Lie systems on Poisson manifolds enjoying rich geometric features: the Lie--Hamilton systems. We devise methods to study their superposition rules, time independent constants…
We study Lie algebras of generators of infinitesimal symmetries of almost-cosymplectic-contact structures of odd dimensional manifolds. The almost-cosymplectic-contact structure admits on the sheaf of pairs of 1-forms and functions the…
We find three-dimensional subspaces of four-dimensional connected Lie algebras, generating these algebras, and abnormal extremals on connected Lie groups with these Lie algebras and with left-invariant sub-Finsler quasimetrics defined by…
